It appears very interesting and some aspects (offline stepping, passing footwork and circling attacks) seems similar to the type of military sabre fencing practiced in Sweden in the 19th century, which I’m trying to recreate.

I am looking for the book “Christmann, F. C. und Pfeffinger, G. Theoretisch-Praktische Anleitung des Hau-Stoßfechtens und des Schwadronhauens nach einer ganz neuen Methode”. I would be glad to hear from any source for this material.

Hey, I’d like to put up a third request for availability, if possible. There’s similarities here to stuff I’ve seen (sketches in Chappon for Hungarian/KuK), and would love to see the rest of it, and have regularly used the principle in the sabre lineage I was taught (including voiding out while cutting with the false edge). –Russ
